Maxmat Aguarrás (Turpentine substitute)

Maxmat Aguarrás is a chemical solvent, commonly known as white spirit or turpentine substitute, used for thinning oil-based paints and cleaning brushes. It is a private-label product of Maxmat, a prominent Portuguese DIY and home improvement retail chain.

Historically, Maxmat was established as a joint venture between the Sonae Group and the Irish CRH Group. However, the brand is currently owned by the Sonae Group, one of Portugal's largest business conglomerates. The product is manufactured in Portugal specifically for distribution through Maxmat retail locations across the country, serving both professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.
